Linton, Maidstone, Kent

Burford Farm is a former agricultural estate now entering a new chapter. A carefully envisioned collection of ex-agricultural buildings evolving into refined rural homes. At the heart of this transformation lies The Threshing Barn, a striking example of traditional Kentish architecture reimagined for contemporary living.

Planning approval has been granted for the conversion of the prominent Grain Store into two exceptional four-bedroom dwellings, a key step in establishing the site’s residential future. The wider farmstead includes The Granary, The Tool Shed, and other period buildings, each contributing to the site’s authentic rural character and offering scope for future restoration and reuse (subject to the existing, awaiting decisions and additional necessary consents).

A gravel driveway winds through the site, leading to a generous parking area, while a newly created wetland pond enhances biodiversity and softens the transition from farm to new homes.

Burford Farm represents a rare opportunity to be part of a landmark rural redevelopment in the heart of Kent.
